Genes affected
USH2A (HGNC:12601): (usherin) This gene encodes a protein that contains laminin EGF motifs, a pentaxin domain, and many fibronectin type III motifs. The protein is found in the basement membrane, and may be important in development and homeostasis of the inner ear and retina. Mutations within this gene have been associated with Usher syndrome type IIa and retinitis pigmentosa. Multiple transcript variants encoding different isoforms have been found for this gene.

This sequence change creates a premature translational stop signal (p.His308Glnfs*16) in the USH2A gene. It is expected to result in an absent or disrupted protein product. Loss-of-function variants in USH2A are known to be pathogenic (PMID: 10729113, 10909849, 20507924, 25649381). This variant is present in population databases (rs397518043, gnomAD 0.01%). This premature translational stop signal has been observed in individuals with retinal dystrophy and Usher syndrome 2A (PMID: 10729113, 23940504, 26806561, 26969326). It has also been observed to segregate with disease in related individuals. This variant is also known as 921-922insCAGC. ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 48615). For these reasons, this variant has been classified as Pathogenic. -

Review Status: criteria provided, single submitter

Variant summary: USH2A c.920_923dupGCCA (p.His308GlnfsX16) results in a premature termination codon, predicted to cause a truncation of the encoded protein or absence of the protein due to nonsense mediated decay, which are commonly known mechanisms for disease. Truncations downstream of this position have been classified as pathogenic by our laboratory. The variant allele was found at a frequency of 5.6e-05 in 250562 control chromosomes (gnomAD). This frequency is not significantly higher than expected for a pathogenic variant in USH2A causing Usher Syndrome (5.6e-05 vs 0.011), allowing no conclusion about variant significance. c.920_923dupGCCA has been reported in the literature in multiple compound heterozygous and homozygous individuals affected with Usher Syndrome (Wafa_2020, Mansard_2021). These data indicate that the variant is very likely to be associated with disease. To our knowledge, no experimental evidence demonstrating an impact on protein function has been reported. 16 ClinVar submitters (evaluation after 2014) cite the variant as pathogenic. Based on the evidence outlined above, the variant was classified as pathogenic. -

The His308fs variant has been reported in many probands with Usher syndrome type II, many of whom were homozygous or compound heterozygous (Weston 2000, Sandber g 2008, Aller 2004, Dreyer 2008, Dreyer 2000, Jaijo 2009, Leroy 2001, Ouyang 200 4, Pennings 2004, Seyedahmadi 2004). In addition, the His308fs variant is predic ted to cause a frameshift, which alters the protein's amino acid sequence beginn ing at codon 308 and leads to a premature stop codon 16 codons downstream. This alteration is then predicted to lead to a truncated or absent protein. In summar y, this variant meets our criteria to be classified as pathogenic. -
